Chapter 4-Knowledge and blood  
     
1.
 Knowledge, more specifically divine wisdom and true history were considered as precious as diamonds and gold to the ancients.
  
2.
 They were also treasures to be guarded with equal zeal. Today, in the age of the internet, people take it for granted that they can search through the entire knowledge bank of humanity- from the sublime to the poor imitations claiming to be wisdom.
  
3.
 But at the time of Joseph and his son Jesus, people did not have this luxury. Precious little of the knowledge of the divine, of the true nature of the cosmos, of the inter connection between things, that life is a dream, that every thought and action has consequences were understood by a precious few, mostly holders of very ancient temples and scriptures.
  
4.
 The people that understood this wisdom most were the oldest bloodlines of divine wisdom, the ancient Kings whose blood came together in the veins of the cuilleain, the Holy Ones, the High Kings of Ireland.
 
5.
 Before modern words such as "druid" were introduced to describe them, they were the first priests of human history, the ones that saved their community from starvation over 5,000 years ago, the ones that built StoneHenge to stop satanic worship in Britain and the leaders of the great Celts that populated Europe.
 
6.
 These bloodlines also flowed through other groups, exiles of Ebla and Ugarit, exiles of the reign of Akhenaten.
 
7.
 The Essenes were one of these groups. Their library of ancient esoteric knowledge probably rivaled the greatest collections of wisdom of any group in the history of the world up until the creation of the great library of Alexandria.
  
8.
 From bitter experience, the Essenes knew that men and women were prepared to kill to discover the secrets of divinity, the keys to the mind of god, the reasons of the universe. And these same men were also prepare to kill anyone else who possessed such knowledge.
  
9.
 Again today, we fail to appreciate just how great true wisdom was in the ancient world. Christians and even jews parrot off parables and stories of which they know nothing of the secret symbolism of heritage. But some scholars and people who have read Buddhism and the great spiritual texts of the world understand what is meant by pure and powerful wisdom that opens one up to the whole universe.
  
10.
 Our lack of understanding means often when we read ancient texts and read about treasure, our first reaction is to fabulous hidden boxes of gold and jewels, when the insights of Akhenaten, the lost commandments of the true Moses, were far more precious.
  
11.
 The Essenes were therefore very careful about revealing just how much they knew, for fear of either provoking the deadly anger of their rivals, or the jealous eye of someone wanting to seize that knowledge for themselves.
  
12.
 So when Joseph the crown prince was exposed to the knowledge, the knowledge of the most ancient mysteries of who really made human beings, our soul, the mind of the universe, life is a dream, of respecting life, of reality of the afterlife he envisioned a world where this knowledge was understood by every man and woman.
  
13.
 Interestingly, this was the same altruistic goal of the Buddha several hundred years before across India and the near East. It was also the goal of Muhammad, the prophet and creator of Islam until the Umayyad dynasty saw more benefit in twisting the beautiful words of the Qur’an and inserting vile and terrible contortions against women, against non-believers for their own ends.
  
14.
 So to further his goals, Joseph built the biggest university campus in ancient history, with dormitories, scriptoriums, temples and library facilities.
